your highways from the mosey side of town
meandering like voices under doorways
laughter rain pooling into pretending oceans

you strum the strings of your volumes
like pages under a feather's whisper
I watch your eyes when they are but dancers

looking between the lines you aligned
and then closing into memory places
hoping there is value in your learning

that is more precious than amber ankles
that flicker under the sculpted charms
of just a gypsy's favorite candles

smiling again now, lest the palms become you

Excellent entangled thoughts here but I just love the ones in this verse....

"you strum the strings of your volumes
like pages under a feather's whisper
I watch your eyes when they are but dancers"

Yes sir! That's poetry!
